Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	The invention relates to an apparatus for continuous casting of metal billets comprising a horizontal casting mould having and inlet end and an outlet end. It includes a feed trough for feeding molten metal to the mould inlet end and a horizontal conveyor for receiving a cast billet from the mould outlet end. A moveable cutting saw is operable to move synchronously with the conveyor for cutting a continuous billet into lengths while supported on the conveyor. The billet is resiliently supported and the saw mechanism is isolated so as to minimize transmission of low and high frequency vibrations from the cutting and conveying operations to the mould.
